Australia, India, Guatemala, China, Mexico, Germany, Japan, Ireland, Scotland,
Hong Kong, France, the United States and Canada have participated in this

Print Information &
Submission Guidelines

Each artist creates a limited edition print using a traditional print
technique such as etching, wood block, linoblock, embossing, lithographs,
relief, silkscreen or mixed print media inspired
in some way by the GOAT, SHEEP, LAMB, or RAM. As always, the Year of the Goat is both an exchange
and a series of exhibitions. The first print is kept and used for the travelling
exhibitions. The other prints are offered for sale or used for the exchange.
For the exchange, you receive back other artists' work and other artists get
your prints.

(Ontario College of Art & Design University) Toronto, Ottawa School of Art,
Ottawa, Muskoka Art Place Gallery, Port Carling, Ontario, and Concordia
University MousePrint Gallery in Montreal. Similar exhibitions are planned for
2015 for the Year of the Goat. The show travels from February to the end of May.
After the show comes home to PROOF your
prints are exchanged and mailed out over the summer.

Submission Deadline: Must be received by January
30th, 2015
The first print is matted and used for the travelling exhibitions. All other
prints will be offered for sale. Proceeds are split 30/70 with artist. Unsold
prints are exchanged with other printmakers.
